based on the available evidence, Etsy witches are 2 for 2 with a 100% success rate.

As far as I can tell (without searching online), this is all the data we have available. Therefore, I think we can safely say that these curses and whatever work.

Sadly our HOA bans candles (connected properties), otherwise I'd be buying some stuff online right now.

The candles and theatrics are helpful for staying focused and keeping your mind on the task and not wandering but the occult can be practiced without anything but your mind and imagination. The occult practices are essentially Zen Buddhism but done with western symbolism because that’s usually what we are raised on in our early formative years so our subconscious responds to it more easily.
